Why am I using words, no more to say without youClose the door, put out the lights and goLate the night, in the night your shadow falls between usNevermore, never knowThere, memories are sorrowWhen there's no tomorrow

Sleep while the sweet sorrow wakes my daydreamSleep while you think of me with kindnessPlease remember former daysSweet the song that once we sangThat silent parting waysAnd you know and you knowAnd you know long ago when first we made our promiseEmpty words, I wonder, did you know?

The laugh that love could not forgiveIs gone and tells no call to liveAnd we who look in beauty's loveMust now through all think back on before

The tears that first I cried, no moreYour love has come and gone, no moreAnd we who look in beauty's loveMust now through all think back on before

Sleep while the sweet sorrow wakes my daydreamSleep while you think of me with kindnessPlease remember former daysAnd you know and you knowAnd you know when we two parted in tears and silencePast the days, the parting waysFare thee well, fare thee well, you that was once dear to meThink of me with kindness, think of me
